Maude was driving at twenty-eight miles an hour when the child ran out from between two parked cars. No one's fault, said the coroner, but Maude knew that no one else had killed that child, and if the court wasn't going to punish her, she would punish herself.
Ten years on Maude has a life spent in shadows. A life that is no life at all, until a stranger's knock on the door and an unlikely escape to Scotland begin to convince her, almost in spite of herself, that she may have something to lose.
Reviews:
The new novel about the redeeming power of love from the hugely popular and highly acclaimed author of Goodbye, Johnny Thunders raises Tania Kindersley onto a new level - the biggest and best book yet from one of the most promotable young British literary novelists.
At the age of 24, Maude Strong was found not guilty of dangerous driving, even though a child's death resulted. For ten long years, Maude has punished herself for this. Working as a ghost writer, she buries herself in other people's stories, until one day a knock on her door leads her on an adventure of her own.
